You might want to check your facts. Many smart people (and ZeroCash team members) are watching what Monero is doing with RingCT right now:
.... Post from your actual account and then maybe we will consider what you have to say. Obvious sock puppet is obvious.
Even still, a re-tweet hardly constitutes as an endorsement. I am sure he stands behind Zerocash tech and was genuinely interested in RingCT for academic purposes. Pretty much all of the Zcash guys hail from academia.
This is why I never seriously supported Monero. I have claimed repeatedly over the past couple years that better technology would come along and render it useless. I recently invested a little into Monero, because its marketing on these forums is on point, but it is really just a safety net in case Zcash crashes and burns. As long as the initial parameters for Zcash can be generated in a transparent manner, then I have no doubts it will take over the "anon coin" market.
Isn´t that even a critical thing to achieve before we can even start to cheer for Zcash?
Not really. If they screw it up, someone will come in behind them and do it properly. The success of the cryptocurrency hinges on this one moment, do you really think they are going to "half ass" it?
